 I’ve seen far too much conflict handled the wrong way. My perspective is that the legal system is costly and adversarial. It is not the best venue for resolving family disputes. I suffered through my own divorce with my ex spouse. I felt alone. 

Professionally, I have spent nearly 30 years in the “battlefields” of divorce court. On a daily basis, I deal with my divorce clients in all divorce processes including as a professional peacemaker, negotiator and litigator. Many, but not all, of my clients are high net worth. Their divorces are complex legally, financially and emotionally. I have had the privilege of representing and successfully securing domestic violence restraining orders for women, children and men who were victimized, in most cases physically battered. I take my profession very seriously. I have had the privilege of representing clients whose spouses are in the throes of addiction and mental health crises. These high conflict cases are serious and the stakes are high. 

It’s occurred to me more recently as the world is going through a sea change post the Covid19 pandemic that most clients want more than legal advice. Coaching is the missing piece bridging the gap between helping with legal issues and addressing the whole person. Dealing with transitions isn’t something clients should endure alone. I know because I went through my divorce and felt alone. My attorneys were doing their jobs but were not holistically attuned or present enough to look and see me as a whole person. 

With expertise in divorce law and coaching, I excel in intricate and high net worth cases. Through the powerful blend of 30 years of legal acumen, coaching skills, and intuitive insights, I propel women to shift their focus towards a brighter future by transforming heartbreak into breakthroughs using my 90 day “Transformational Divorce: Empowering, healing and securing futures”.
